React JS Tutorial - #1 - Project Setup
Welcome to the first episode in my React for Absolute Beginners Course! Throughout this course you'll gain a base level understanding of the React JavaScript framework, and you'll learn how to use React JS to the fullest. You'll learn things like components, React hooks, conditional rendering, and so much more!
This first episode is dedicated towards giving you a basic background of React, as well as setting up the React project using Vite. By the end of the video, you'll have a React website that can be launched with one simple command!
Before getting the app installed, make sure you've installed an IDE like Visual Studio Code to edit your React code in. In addition, make sure you've installed NodeJS as it's what allows us to create a local runtime and gives us access to npm (node package manager) that allows us to install all sorts of packages and libraries!
If you're not already familiar, React JS is a JavaScript framework that combines elements of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to create flexible and dynamic web pages. Though, it is important to note that React's version of HTML is called JSX, which we talk about a little in this video and much more in the next episode!
